Construction of an Imitating Nano-motor Driven by Six ATP-binding RNAs of Bacterial Virus phi29
02 Dec 2004 | | Contributor(s):: Peixuan Guo
A switchable imitating DNA-packaging motor was constructed in the laboratory. The motor is driven by six synthetic ATP-binding pRNA (packaging RNA) molecules that bind to the connector and function in a manner similar to the driving of a bolt with a hex nut. Conformational change and sequential...

Multiscale Modeling of the Mechanical Behavior of Polymer-Based Nanocomposites
25 Mar 2004 | | Contributor(s):: Catalin Picu
Polymers filled with nanoscale fillers (carbon nanotubes or nanoparticles) exhibit enhanced properties compared with the neat polymer and with the polymer filled with micron-sized fillers at same volume fraction. Most interestingly, combinations of exceptional properties may be obtained as, for...

Quantum Electromechanical Systems: Are we there yet?
05 Feb 2004 | | Contributor(s):: Andrew Cleland
Electrons moving in a conductor can transfer momentum to the lattice via collisions with impurities and boundaries, giving rise to a fluctuating mechanical stress tensor. Driving electrons out of equilibrium by applying the voltage across the conductor, one may control this electromechanical noise.
